Recent estimates from analyst firms like Future Market Insights show an interesting increase in demand for activated carbon filters.
These installations help with air and water purification. They remove contaminants, impurities and odors from air, water and other solids or liquids.
That’s because a porous surface area in the carbon will trap and hold small VOCs that contaminate air or water. The materials used in these filters are engineered to create tiny holes that will trap these pollutants. That gives people peace of mind about the water that they drink, and the air that they breathe. This is particularly a focus in communities and areas where significant contamination exists on a regular basis. That includes highly industrial areas, and high-traffic cities.
Industry Growth Forecasts
A report from Future Market Insights near the end of last year showed a prediction of 7.2% growth for the activated carbon filter market. That means a total market value of around $150 billion by 2033. That’s double what the market was in 2022, around $75 billion. That’s a of growth.
Regional Demand
Multiple reports show that the Asia-Pacific region is a top market: that’s partly because of industrial growth there, and also because some large companies concentrate themselves in those areas, along with a large consumer base for these technologies. Studies show high growth rates for the market in Southeast Asian countries.
Drivers of Growth
First and foremost, the analysts point out that the need for activated carbon filters (and the market around them) has been driven by a demand for cleaner air and water.
“The global activated carbon filter market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years, driven by increasing demand from various end-use industries such as water treatment, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and automotive,” analysts at Fact.MR write. “Advancements in technology and increasing investments in research and development are expected to drive innovation and further enhance the performance and efficiency of activated carbon filters.”
Research on purification technologies has shown that activated carbon filters are great for removing impurities from drinking water. But they’re also important for dealing with air pollution. That’s why this new drive for activated carbon systems represents an awareness that we need to keep the air that we breathe clean.
For example, analysts point out that these installations are going to be increasingly installed in HVAC systems. They’re likely to coexist with energy-efficient and sustainable building practices. For example, think about cladding for temperature decrease, or sustainable materials design. All of this helps.
Researchers also note strategic partnerships between businesses as promoting the growth in this market.
Why Is Awareness Growing?
There are certain trends, too, that drive the market for items like activated carbon filters, not to mention other kinds of protective systems.
First, we have the massive wildfires that are sending so much smoke into the atmosphere. This damage is letting people know that they need to keep their air clean. It’s scary to see this billowing cloud descend on you, and to smell the acrid smoke and know that it’s getting into your lungs. That’s just one of the more blatant forms of air pollution – others may be hidden in plain sight. Not all contaminants have an odor, or a color, or any real signifier that they are present in your air or water. This can lead to an “out of sight, out of mind” mentality – but more Americans are getting serious about doing the research and knowing how important clean air and clean water are.
As for the wildfires, residential and commercial carbon systems are in high demand when there are these pressures on community health.
There’s also more awareness on how impurities affect conditions like asthma and allergies that millions of Americans struggle with every day.
If these conditions seem to get worse, if you have trouble with your allergies more days out of the year, or struggle with breathing difficulties on a more regular basis, it might be at least partly because of new contaminants in your air. It’s important to evaluate your environment, and try to improve it, in order to get the best possible health outcomes. Don’t wait. Get granular information about what you’re breathing. It may help boost your health.
Improving Air Quality in Your Home
If you’re concerned about this, you can use air monitors to effectively figure out what’s in your indoor air. Then you can install air purifier machines to reduce or eliminate the VOCs or particle matter.
Modern HEPA filters help you to get rid of all kinds of impurities, including:
- PM 2.5
- Mold spores
- Dust mites
- Pet dander and pet odor
- Volatile organic compounds
All of these things can affect your health when they are present in your indoor air. But the good news is that modern activated carbon systems can help a lot.
